Serj Tankian and award-winning director Garin Hovannisian inspire a call to action for social justice with new film release, TRUTH TO POWER, set to debut at the Cannes Virtual Market this week. The film chronicles Serj Tankian, the Grammy-winning lead singer of System Of A Down, whose music and outspoken social justice activism on and off the stage has influenced large-scale political movements. Watch a preview of the film here.

Set to the music of System of a Down, the film offers a unique and exclusive access to the man behind the music, and captures both intimate and historic public moments, including Serj’s role in inspiring the massive peaceful protests of 2018’s Velvet Revolution in his native Armenia which successfully ousted an oligarchic regime.

TRUTH TO POWER is directed by the award winning director/writer/producer Garin Hovannisian. The film also includes appearances by System Of A Down band members John Dolmayan and Shavo Odadjian, the band’s manager David “Beno” Benveniste, filmmaker/journalist Carla Garapedian, Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello, and famed record producer Rick Rubin.

The feature documentary is executive produced by Academy Award® nominee Joe Berlinger (“Paradise Lost” trilogy, “Metallica: Some Kind of Monster”); and Live Nation Production’s Ryan Kroft (Emmy® winner for “The T Word”), Michael Rapino (“A Star is Born,” Emmy nominee for “Believer”), Damian Vaca, and Vaughn Schoonmaker.
